Sharpness.? got up from the grassy field. He pulled himself up, still disoriented.
Once his vision stabilized, he looked down and saw...
"What the fuck!?" Judelow stumbled back.
His hands had gloves. Not just any gloves, Sharpness' gloves. And he was wearing unfamiliar armor— Sharpness' armor.
Judelow turned around, there was no one. Just him and his confusion weighing on him heavily.
He spotted the nearest pond and practically sprinted over to see his reflection.
Judelow watched the still pond reflect back Sharpness to him.
No bunny ears, no hood, no purple hair. It's all Sharpness. What was going on? Sharpness wasn't online, so he couldn't ask him.
Then, his confusion twisted into something... sinister.
"What if I trap people with this?"
Judelow cleared his throat, "Hello, I'm Sharp— nah. Too american. Hello, I'm... eh... You know what— I'll just say I have a sore throat." Judeow decided, hoisting himself up, but falling right back down on to the soft grass below.
Thank god he didn't fall forward— he didn't want to get anything dirty. What was in Sharpness' inventory that made it so heavy..?
Judelow opened his inventory and saw the usual.
Sword, pots, a rose, a shulker with trap mats... that's why it was so heavy! Wait, a rose?
Judelow hovered over the rose. It read: Rose 4 Jude <3
He was caught off guard by it— Sharpness wasn't one for romantic gestures at all.
While he's here, he might as well bring it to his base.
Judelow pulled out his communicator and checked his coords. Great, it's 500 blocks out. How fun.
Judelow sighed and got out Sharpness' elytra.
...As he was about to put it on, he noticed some cracks. It was on 12 durability. Clear from the wear and tear all the way through— he'd probably believe it if someone told him this elytra went through a paper shredder.
He put it back in his inventory and begrudgingly went onwards back to his base.
On the way, he couldn't help but feel more anxious, more paranoid.
Mainly because he didn't have his bunny ears— does Sharpness feel like this? Just waiting to be jumped at any moment.
But at the same time, his body feels a lot lighter despite the heavy armor and shulker.
Judelow ran forward. He's faster. It's a lot more energetic. He could get used to this.
"Hey Sharpness!" someone waved in the distance, running towards him.
Judelow's hand moved to his sword on instinct, but relaxed when he saw Saparata's nametag.
Judelow gave a polite wave as Saparata came closer.
"Hello," Saparata greeted. Judelow pointed to his throat— Sharpness' throat. "Oh, sore throat?"
Judeow nodded.
"Dang, must be bad if you can't speak at all." Saparata squinted. His eyes focused on something else on Judelow.
Judelow nodded, again.
Saparata's face twisted into something akin to suspicon. "U-huh... Well, I gotta go... do, something— uh, see you."
Judelow waved him goodbye and went on his way.
As soon as he entered his base, he made a chest and shoved the shulker and the rose in there, burying it deep underground where nobody would check.
Once he covered the hole, he couldn't help but see his own reflection in his peripheral vision.
He whipped his head around before realizing it was just him.
He looked at his reflection. Clearer this time. It was.. he was beautiful.
Sharpness' bangs perfectly framed his face, the light hitting the golden strands in a way that resembled dawn. A deep shade of emerald that seemed to belong to royalty.
His hair was soft and well kept, his skin was no difference either.
Judelow was speechless.
Sharpness was truly breathtaking.
It reminded him of when he saw Sharpness fight up close.
How Sharpness' expression always stayed indifferent despite his shenanigans outside of pvp. How his elegance and poise is that of a noble despite being a warrior.
Sharpness conexion, the oxymoron.
His body language was not something Judelow could replicate. Maybe that's why Saparata felt something was off.
Judelow debated in his head before deciding on an action.
He looked behind him, checking if the coast is clear.
Judelow turned back and lifted up his shirt—
He yelped, "Fuck—" his communicator buzzed rapidly and fell out of his pocket. "God forbid a man admire his boyfriend. Jeez. Can't have anything nowadays."
Picking it up, he just rolled his eyes after seeing the messages.

Judelow waited a couple seconds before it died down, Judelow shoved it back in his pocket and scanned the room again.
Parker was walking down the staircase. There goes his plans— again.
Parker hadn't spotted him... yet.
Judelow dashed behind a wall and tried his bes to stay quiet in the base.
God, making the base echo is working against his favor right now.
squeak!
"...Jude?"
Fuck.
"Hellooo?"
Parker sighed, "Whatever. You do you."
Judelow peeked from the side of the wall and saw Parker heading deeper into the base.
He took a hesitant step... fuck, that was loud.
Maybe he just has to make a run for it.
He's fast, right?
Judelow took a deep breath and ran at full speed, up the stairs, and out the door.
"Yo what were you—" the voice got quieter and quieter until he was out of range.
As he smiled to himself about his successful but pointless escapade, he heard swords clashing in the distance.
This is my chance.

Sharpness got out of... a bed. Despite it's soft cushioning, his head hirt like hell.
The last thing he could remember was laying down in a grass field to rest after collecting a shulker full of trapping materials.
As he tried to make sense of his surroundings, a loud CLANK! jolted him up. What the fuck was that!? It sounded right next to his ear!
He rushed outside... the room? In Judelow's base, whatever— his sword was already drawn. Just for him to see a bow ultimate shoot from up the stares and Parker hiding behind a wall.
His body feels... heavier. Like someone just sucked the life out of it. His eyes are heavy, and he feels... oh.
This is Judelow's body, isn't it?
That motherfucker pulled another all nighter didn't he.
"Okay, their gone." Parker groaned, "I hate loophole glitches so much."
"Yeah, yeah no, me too."
"...Jude?"
...Oh fuck him and his heavy serbian accent.
Sharpness just tilted his head in confusion, refusing to speak another word.
The silence stretched.
"Well, I should... probably mend my chestplate. It's getting a bit low on durability." Parker mentioned, walking straight forward and past Sharpness.
Sharpness was about to breathe a sigh of relief until a hand locked him in from the back, and another was holding a dagger up to his throat.
"Speak, Sharpness."
"Woah— how did you know it was me!?" His grasp wasn't restricting, but it wasn't very loose either.
"Why are you here? Why are you in my teammate's body?"
"I don't know! I just woke up in his bed and I don't know shit— just let me go." Sharpness tried to shimmy his way out. Fuck, he's strong. Or maybe Judelow's weak.
No, that can't be true. He'd beat Sharpness a couple times.
Sharpness felt a yawn escape his mouth.
Ah right, he's sleep deprived, that's why.
Parker removed his hands and Sharpness stumbled forward.
"Fine. Just stay here for now, I think their still fighting outside."
"Nah, I'm getting to the bottom of this."
"Your going to die— and neither of us have any extra gear sets."
Sharpness considered his options, then sighed, "Yeah, your right. I don't wanna get chewed out by that guy again."
Sharpness pulled out his communicator.

"Yo Jude— what the fuck is happening?"
"I don't know? Why you asking me? I just barely escaped offshore team doing some stupid ass glitch."
"Because you clearly know what's going on!"
"No I don't~"
"Yes you fucking do!"
"Easy there princess, let's not get too aggressive."
"Oh my god— fine. What's going on, Jude."
"Better."
"Answer my question."
"Oh yeah!" his voice turned flat, "I don't know."
"Why did you— I'm killing you for that."
"Killing yourself you mean?" Judelow clicked his tongue, "Your gonna get demonetized for that."
"After—"
"If."
"If, after, whatever. I'm killing you once I get back to my body."
"Sure, princess."
"D1 ragebaiter over here."
"Took ya long enough."
Sharpness rolled his eyes even though Judelow couldn't see it.
"C'mon Sharp, let's meet up and try to figure this out."
Coords -127 253.
Sharpness arrived to the location to see himself sitting beneath a tree that blocked the sunlight.
Uhh trnasition
"Damn, I look good!" Judelow exclaimed.
Sharpness pulled out his sword and smacked the side of Judelow's chestplate.
"Ow— wait, that... didn't actually hurt that much."
"Why the fuck do you stay up so late!?"
"That's the first thing you wanna say after seeing me?"
"Yes! Stop staying up so goddamn late, I could barely fight Parker's grasp!"
Judelow had his signature sly grin on, "I'm not convinced, Parker's getting pretty strong."
"How are you not convinced— It's damaging your health!"
"Oh, so you care about me? How romantic."
"Yes— fuck, nah, wait—"
Judelow just stood there with a shit eating grin on his face. While Sharpness was red as fuck.
"And, care to explain the rose in my inventory that was named 'Rose 4 Jude less than three'?"
"You're lying."
"And a shulker full of trap mats?"
"Fuck."
"Your so kind to me!" Judelow batted his eyelashes jokingly.
Sharpness stepped closer until their faces were inches away. "I would kill you right now if you weren't in my body."
"I never knew I was this intimidating, damn."
As they stared eachother down, there was a buzz that could be heard.
Sharpness pulled it out of his pocket, and Judelow peeked over his shoulder to see.

The same dizzy feeling returned after joining the game.
Judelow stabilized himself using anything that was near him.
His senses came back to him, barely. Did resetting a server make his body this tired?
"Jude.."
Judelow looked up to see that he was gripping Sharpness' shoulder.
Judelow opened his mouth to say something, but he felt something strike his back.
"Sharp what the fuck—" He felt his legs get swept off the floor as Sharpness began carrying him.
"Your going to sleep."
"What!? But it's the afternoon!"
"Yeah, and your gonna sleeo until morning."
"Or what, huh?"
"I'm gonna knock you out and drag you back."
"Fine. I love you."
Sharpness hesitated.
He waited a few moments, mentally preparing himself.
He glanced down and was about to open his mouth, when he saw Judelow already sleeping.
No pressure. I know you love me back.
Sharpness smiled and whispered, "I love you too, Judes."
To have a pvper be this vulnerable, it's truly a reward.
He looked back up, focusing on traversing the uneven ground of a past fight.
